Their teams are responsive and easy to work with - especially their publisher support team (Kudos, Jacee!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the intuitive nature of the product from a user POV. From affiliate marketing lens, Rakuten has an incredible breadth of brands and they're a key player in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rakuten Advertising?

I wish there was a better, more streamlined way to ingest coupons/deals from brands. I do find a lot of brands don't always post the most updated information and they'll do so only in email for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Insightful & Progressive"
5/5
What do you like best about Rakuten Advertising?

The visual dashboards are a great way to be able to keep across performance at a glance. I like how you can build reports to further deep dive into performance. I think it is really progressive when it comes to find new publishers with new AI tool. This is amazing, as previously this was tricky to find new publishers based off their name alone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rakuten Advertising?

It would be great to be able to load paid placements into the dashboard as soon as you book. Instead of having to wait for that particular month. It would also be great to attribute spend to previous months for reporting purposes.

For example, it bonus payments are made early or late then the following year when comparing data is it not an accurate reflection.

It would also be great to see tracking and commission spend together to be able to track in the dashboard the true ROI.

Lastly, it would be great the dates on the dashboard so I can track both the calendar year and our French calendar year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
